Synopsis
A weak low-pressure system that spun up over southern BC overnight will continue to bring mainly cloudy skies and occasional flurries to the resort today and this evening. A few more cms of accumulation is likely. Skies will clear tonight as the low weakens and is replaced by a weak ridge of high pressure and a drier NW flow aloft. On Tuesday, sunny skies are expected in the morning, followed by variable cloud cover in the afternoon. Temperatures on the slopes will remain a few degrees below zero, while temperatures in the village will likely rise to a degree or two above zero during the afternoons. Wind on the slopes will be gusty from the SE this morning, then shift to a lighter northwesterly direction this afternoon.
Extended Outlook
Wednesday to Friday: A west to northwesterly flow aloft is expected to bring slightly cooler temperatures along with a chance of flurries to the resort on Wednesday. A brief warm-up is possible along with a light snowfall on Thursday as a weak Pacific frontal band crosses the region. Cooler temperatures and a clearing trend should follow on Thursday.
